We hope you and all the rest of your friends and family in the Finger Lakes (that includes Thomas and Anne, of course) all have a really fabulous holiday season and a wonderful and prosperous New Year.

Also, our very best wishes for the same to all the rest of our friends here on the Wine Board.

We're off for Florida first thing tomorrow, but I'm taking my laptop, so I'll be checking in periodically.

And may you and yours have the very best of holidays. It's just a tad too far but would love to get up to see you again. CB may relent(she's a dedicated NON-Flier) and decide the rewards(alla' them SWs') outwiegh the negatives. Will definately devote my "Breakfast of Champions" in your memory tomorrow morning. BPR, WW
